> one last question how to resize the movies?
There are lots of ways in After Effects to resize things, including using the Scale property that is on every layer or using the Detail-preserving Upscale effect.
Please, do go through the basic learning materials that I linked to.

The alert message is just telling you that a specific feature won't use the GPU. This message is innocuous. It only means that the processing of one specific, obsolete feature will use the CPU, not the GPU.
Are you saying that After Effects won't start or open your project?

How do I Import footage from Premier Pro CS3 to After Effects?

Hi
As the subject says, how do I import footage from premier pro cs3 into after effects. I'm getting rather frustrated trying to figure this out.
Via copy & paste I can copy into after effects but this copys the whole of the track on the timeline, where as I just want 10 seconds copied. The 10 seconds I want to copy is a segment & was highlighted when I clicked copy.
Also when the full track gets copied, all my edits aren't copied & I get the raw track copied???
I've googled this, tried the "Add Dynamic Link" but all I want is to copy 10 seconds of footage from premier into after effects, add my effect & then copy it back, and I can't figure out how to do this simple thing
Any help
Thanks.

I am still not getting this.
I highlight the selection I want to copy into after effects. I copy & paste it & it pastes my entire footage without any off the edits I have made.
Having searched loads for this I can find no other answer than copy & paste.
Please please could you guy be more specific with your answers as I just can't figure this one?

Why did you do that? Certainly not standard procedure. Fortunately, there is a fix: Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

Is mac book pro good enough to run final cut and after effects?

is mac book pro good enough to run final cut and after effects?

Yes it is. I have two at my office working fine.
Just note. FCP has already delivered the universal binary so you won;t have any trouble. For After Effects, Adobe has not released the binary yet so the worst that will happen is that you might have a little delay opening the application. We are a professional media organization and we can rely on our intel based macs. Don't worry.

How to combine Row members in Create Composit Forms in Planning 9301

Hi All,
I'm working on Hyperion System9 Planning 9.3.01. I have created two data forms for Actuals and Budget data. Wherein in Actuals form the actual data is pulled from the Oracle GL and I'm entering the budget data in my Budget Form.
Now the question here is I wanted to combine these tow forms into a single form using "CreateComposite" option and I'm able to create the composite form for both actual and Budget form. But the composite form displays two separate forms side-by-side. Whereas I wanted to combine the Row members of both forms as both have same row members.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Hi sajid
There was nothing more description about your issue in this site and I found an issue below is mostly like yours
http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/855487/how-to-combine-two-table-value-in-rdlc-report
In the issue above, if you want to show the two other tables in the report, I think you could combine the tables into one datatable joining on key. The link below show an example of a DataSet Helper from Microsoft about combine DataSets. Take note of
the related content for other DataSet Helper examples. And then you could use the datatable in your RDLC.
# HOW TO: Implement a DataSet JOIN helper class in Visual C# .NET
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326080/en-us
In an alternative way, I think you could create a view in the database which combine your tables and use it in your rdlc.
In addition, your issue is about asp.net and you could get more support in the asp.net forum whose link as below.

How to activate a project from create status

Hello
I have a situation where a template project was created with ChaRm activation and there are transports associated with the project. However, the project is still in create status and we are unable to activate the project. Tried to change the forced change of phase, but still not able to activate it. Any ideas?
Regards,
Gangadhar

Hi Gangadhar,
I do not understand your terminology.
Where do you see the status created of the project, in which transaction ?
How have you created the transport requests ? With ChaRM ? Have you created a cycle ?
What is the functional problem ?

Use Videos Created in Photoshop within After Effects - Possible?

Hello, newbie here. Can i use create video files in Photoshop CC and then import them in After Effects CC as video files?
I create video files in Photoshop CC using Photoshop CC's timeline* and save the video project in Photoshop as TIFF or PSD.
When i import these TIFFs oder PSDs to After Effects, they will only appear as still images, whatever settings i use on import (footage vs. layers). I don't see how to have the TIFFs or PSDs playing in After Effects as a video.
Is it even possible to bring a video project from Photoshop to AE as video and not as a still image?
I understand that the alternative would be to render the Photoshop video as MP4 and bring that MP4 into After Effects. I would prefer to avoid the MP4 route though.
Thanks!

Dave, thanks - i import now the PSD file as "Sequence" and as "Composition - Retain Layer Size" and then i click "Create new Composition from Selection".
Then i get a timeline which shows the correct running time of the video created in Photoshop. All the layers and tracks are there. I also see either an image from the video or a black screen.
But i cannot play it. I can't see different frames of the video - neither by dragging the timeline marker nor by clicking "Play/Pause".
That's certainly an awkward newbie problem - seeing your video, but not able to even play it. But i even watched through the full length of three extremely detailed Adobe/Lynda video tutorials (on the official Adobe site) and didn't get closer to an answer why the video doesn't play in AE.
I have to admit that on importing i get a Quicktime error message. I also studied the official Adobe page regarding that error message and didn't understand it. But i know that when i 'had* Quicktime installed previously, it ruined my system and my mood.
So if you have any quick hint, that would be great. Thanks!

Final Cut and After Effects on separate comps

I have just recently had the need to use after effects for some video projects. The problem is that I have After effects on my computer and Final cut pro on my schools edit bays.
Is there a way to make a reference movie that I can bring to my comp, then take the effects back to FCP.
Basically I just want to know If I can do this with two different computers. Make the effects on one, and edit the video on another.
Thanks.

The need for transparency would depend on your project. As an example, if you were doing a motion graphics element, you may want to build it all over top of your original video. Then before render you could "mute" out the original clip and render only your graphics. But you'd need to maintain the transparency so that the only part visible in the rendered final would be the motion elements with empty, invisible pixels all around it. So the transparency gets carried along in an "alpha channel". Doesn't sound like you're going to need this.
So you could simply export a self-contained movie from FCP at school. It will be best, for quality, if you can "Use Current Audio Video Settings" when coming out of FCP. However, this will only work for you, at home, if your home system has the same codec that you'd been working in while in FCP. If not, you've got to determine the best intermediate codec.
You may want to export some extra material around the clips in question so as to make sure you've got everything usable, and then some. So if you've got a 5 second clip you want to export, maybe back up 10-15 frames prior to your clip, set your IN point. Move out 10-15 frames after your 5 second clip and set your OUT point. That way you've got your clip + some extra material.
Take these to the home machine with AE and add your effects. Then render out a movie, that again, matches the sequence settings for the target sequence in FCP.
Remember to pay attention to codecs along the way. In general, the fewer times you hop between codecs, the better the final quality is going to be. What codec are you working in?

Final Cut and After Effects "file is busy"

Hello All-
I am running Final Cut Pro 5.1.4 and After Effects 7.0.1 Pro (on OS 10.4.8) and I have a question. I have a series of After Effects animated DV Quicktime clips edited together in Final Cut, and when I make changes to the After Effects project files and try to rerender, I get an error:
After Effects error: unable to overwrite - file is busy (delete) (-47) ( 3 :: 3 )
It's like Final Cut is "holding onto" the files and not allowing After Effects to rerender them. If I close down Final Cut, I can rerender just fine, but this gets real annoying closing it down and restarting it every time I need to rerender a clip. The problem is, because of my workflow, I need to do this dozens of times a day with clients in the room and I'm spending a lot of time closing and restarting Final Cut over the course of a day... is there way to do this without closing down Final Cut?
I assigned After Effects to be the "External Editor" for "Video Files", and used Final Cut's "Open In Editor" command. It sends the quicktime file to After Effects (not exactly what I want) and you would think that at this point Final Cut would have relenquished its access to the file so that I could rerender in After Effects, but nope, I still get the error. I have tried this with the User Preference setting "Always Reconnect Externally Modified Files" both on and off, no difference. I have also tried "Embed Project Link" in After Effects's quicktime output options, but this didn't help anything (I believe this only affects other Adobe apps).
The weird part of this is that when I drop a Photoshop file onto the Final Cut timeline, I can do "Open in Editor", it throws it to Photoshop, I can alter it and save with no problem, and pop back into Final Cut and it will be updated. But no such luck with Quicktime files and After Effects.
Let me know if there is a solution to this, or if I am stuck having to shut down Final Cut every single time I need to rerender one of the After Effects animation clips in the timeline.

What i have to suggest is more of a work around than it is a solution. i've had this problem off and on as well. What i do is add a number to the name of the newly rendered file, (ie. "monkey_throwspoo2.mov") import that file into FCP, open it in the viewer, and then copy it (apple + c). Provided it's the smae length as the previous file, you can right click on the previous file in the timeline and paste attributes, making sure to click on the content button for video (and audio if there is any). This should replace the old file in the timeline with the new one. Granted, you end up having a bunch of files that you're not using, but it's faster than restarting Final Cut (and looks more like it's something you're doing on purpose rather than a problem with the program to your clients). Hope this helps.

Bringing Photoshop created 3D text into After Effects to work in 3D space?

Hi everyone,
I created 3D text (logo) in photo shop and want to bring it into after effects in order to use it in 3D space. Is it possible? I cant figure out how to bring it in there and still be able to use it in 3D space. it just comes out as a flat image no matter how i bring it in.. ??
Thank you...

As Andrew said, if (CS6){no deal}. for previous versions it should work, but keep in mind that AE will only open files from a matching version of PS, i.e. CS4 files will not work properly in CS5 nor the other way around. This stuff has changed with every version....

Is it possible to create Qt Widgets inside After Effects using the SDK?

Hi,
I would like to use Qt to create Dialogs and Widgets inside AfterEffects.
I started out with the Panelator example in the SDK. I can include QtGui into the project, but as soon as I create any object with QObject as a base-class After Effects crashes immediately with the following error: '[...] could not be loaded (48::46)'
When I try delay load QtCore.dll and QtGui.dll I can at least start the plugin and see, that the crash happens in the initializer of the QObject.
I use
VS 2010
QT 4.8.5
and my buildenvironment is x64
I was wondering if there is any kind of incompatibility of embedding Qt in After Effects (due to linker/compiler setting or defines or something like this).
This is the debugger output:
Locals:
Threads:
My code in the Panel-constructor function:
    int argc = 0;
    char *argv[1] = {""};
    QApplication* a = new QApplication(argc, argv); // THE ERROR OCCURS IN THIS LINE. for a test I exchanged it to QWidget* w = new QWidget(); and it happens as well.
    QWidget* w = new QWidget();
    w->show();
    a->exec();
Outside of AfterFX Qt works fine and I also can delay-load QtGui and QtCore.
If anyone of you already has experience in using QT in AfterEffects, I would really appreciate your help!
Thanks in advance.

It finds QtGui and QtCore, it misses out some other dependencies further down in the hierarchy of USER32.DLL:
Which doesn't seem to disturb if I don't include and use QT:
